Exhaust valve apparatus and gas filled cushion
A gas cushioning material preserved by easily discharging a gas from a bag part and used by filling the bag part with the gas when used again is provided. Gas cells are disposed in parallel in a gas cell row by forming heat-fusion parts in the transverse direction. A discharge valve part for discharging gas is formed at an end portion of each gas cell row. A narrowed discharge passage is formed in the discharge valve part. When the bag part is filled with a gas, the discharge valve part is bent to close the discharge passage, and in the state in which the discharge valve part is bent, a first surface fastener and a second surface fastener formed on a front surface and a rear surface of the discharge valve part are coupled to each other to maintain a closed state of the discharge passage.
1. A gas cushioning material, comprising:
a bag part formed of a film, the bag part having heat fusion lines defining a plurality of gas cell rows in parallel in the bag part, each gas cell row comprising a plurality of gas cells in a longitudinal direction of said each gas cell row, wherein the plurality of gas cells in each gas cell row communicate with each other through a communicating passage;
a gas introducing passage for introducing gas to the bag part, the gas introducing passage formed at one end of the bag part;
a plurality of gas injecting check valves through which the introduced gas from the gas introducing passage flows to the plurality of gas cell rows, each of the plurality of gas injecting check valves connected to each gas cell row, wherein each of the gas cell rows is able to be filled with the gas introduced from the gas introducing passage through each gas injecting check valve;
a discharge valve part for discharging the gas from the gas cell rows, the discharge valve part formed at the other end of the bag part, the discharge valve part having a narrowed discharge passage, the discharge valve part having a first surface fastener and a second surface fastener, the first surface fastener attached to an edge of one surface of the discharge valve part, the second surface fastener attached to a part of the other surface opposite to said one surface of the discharge valve part,
wherein the discharge valve part is in one of a bent state or an open state;
when the discharge valve part is in a bent state, the discharge valve part is bent twice to make the first surface fastener be in contact with the second surface fastener so that the narrowed passage is blocked; and
when the discharge valve part is in an open state, the discharge valve part is not bent so that the narrowed passage is opened.
2. The gas cushioning material of claim 1 , wherein a slit formed between the gas cell rows to divide the discharge valve part so that each divided part of the discharge valve part is formed along each gas cell row, and each divided part of the discharge valve part has the first surface fastener and the second surface fastener.
3. The gas cushioning material of claim 1 , wherein the gas cushioning material comprises a first cushioning material and a second cushioning material;
the first cushioning material and the second cushioning material each has a third surface fastener formed on said one surface of the discharge valve part, and the third surface fastener is spaced apart from the first surface fastener; and
the first cushioning material and the second cushioning material are connected to each other by the third surface fasteners of the first cushioning material and the second cushioning material.
4. The gas cushioning material of claim 1 , wherein the gas cushioning material comprises a third cushioning material and a fourth cushioning material;
the third cushioning material and the fourth cushioning material each has a fourth surface fastener attached to a side edge of the bag part; and
the third cushioning material and the fourth cushioning material are connected to each other by the fourth surface fasteners of the third cushioning material and the fourth cushioning material.
